When posting two images in the same month (images are sorted into folders by month by default) it does not gracefully handle a situation where a duplicate file name is used.
The duplicate file can be uploaded/added to the PhotoQ without issue, however it will not post. Cron/Auto posting simply results in a silent failure. No notification is made of why the queue has stop progressing. When manual posting ("post top of queue"), a duplicate file error is presented.
However under both conditions, the "main" file resize of the original image is overwritten with the new file (original is kept intact, just the resized version are overwritten).
The original file can be fixed by finding its post and using the "rebuild" option.
The duplicate file CANNOT be added unless it is moved far enough down the queue to fall onto another month, or is removed from the queue and added with a different filename.
TLDNR:
Expected behavior: Duplicate WP's behavior of adding an incrementing number to the end of the file name on upload/post when duplicates are encounter.
Experienced behavior: PhotoQ silently fails on duplicate filename and the queue fails to progress. Resized images are overwritten with new file.
